The performance of the proposed peroxy-fuel burner is predicted with the help of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation. It is found that peroxy-fuel burner not only requires considerable less amount of fuel for the same output/power but also at the same time the overall size of the processing unit can be reduced. As peroxy-fuels contain oxygen atoms within the molecule itself a similar to oxy-fuel combustion environment is created without even supplying pure oxygen. CFD simulations also support the above facts and demonstrate the existence of less favorable conditions to form NOx.

T1 - Mass burning rates of di-tert-butyl peroxide pool fires - experimental study and modeling N2 - Data and predictions for the mass burning rates of di-tert-butyl peroxide (DTBP) pool fires (0.003 m < pool diameter < 3 m) are presented. The mass burning rates of DTBP fires are up to five times higher and are less dependent on pool diameter compared to hydrocarbon pool fires caused by an additional heat release rate due to exothermic decomposition reaction in the liquid phase. This heat release rate is calculated using a first-order reaction kinetic obtained from microcalorimetric measurements. A new model is derived considering the heat release rate due to the decomposition reaction, which is shown to be 40% of the heat release rate radiated to the pool surface. With the presented model, which also includes physical quantities, especially the limiting fuel concentration for upward flame propagation, it is possible to predict the mass burning rates of large DTBP pool fires. The predicted values are in very good agreement with the experiments.

T1 - Validated CFD simulation to predict the flame temperatures and species mass fractions of a multiple n-heptane pool fire N2 - The flame temperatures T of a multiple n-heptane pool fire d = 6 cm, N = 5, D/d = 0.33 are measured with type S thermocouples and predicted with Large Eddy Simulation (LES) and an assumed pdf-approach containing a detailed kinetic with 112 species and 800 elementary reactions. Multiple pool fires show higher flame temperatures up to ≈ 200 K in comparison to single pool fires. CFD simulation is in good agreement with the experimental results and a validation is performed. It can be shown that multiple fires have an enhanced air-entrainment leading to an increased formation of OH radicals and consequently to the observed higher flame temperatures.

Such oscillations or more precisely self-sustained deviceless control of mass burning (flow) is not reported till date. Generally, devices comprising electronic control system and/or mechanical means (valves) are necessary to produce such oscillatory burning or control of fuel flow. This unique oscillation is strongly recorded for pool diameters of 6 cm ≤ d ≤ 11 cm beyond which the effect was weakened and unseen (hid) visually. The fuel regression (loss) takes place in irregular time steps and is formulated in form of a step function. The variation in fuel mass burning rates, visible flame lengths and radiation heat fluxes with time are measured as respective representatives of oscillations. The periodicity in the strongest oscillations in relative visible flame lengths is investigated and the measured data are found to be best fitted in sinusoidal form. Both, chemical and thermal effects are shown to be possibly responsible for such effects. Furthermore, a theory is offered to characterise similar effect showing fuels.
